MODULE NOTES:
1. There are two philosophies to building string classes:
A. Hide the underlying buffer & offer API's allow indirect iteration
B. Reveal underlying buffer, risk corruption, but gain performance
We chose the option B for performance reasons.
2 Our internal buffer always holds capacity+1 bytes.
The nsStr struct is a simple structure (no methods) that contains
the necessary info to be described as a string. This simple struct
is manipulated by the static methods provided in this class.
(Which effectively makes this a library that works on structs).
There are also object-based versions called nsString and nsAutoString
which use nsStr but makes it look at feel like an object.
***********************************************************************/
/***********************************************************************
ASSUMPTIONS:
1. nsStrings and nsAutoString are always null terminated.
2. If you try to set a null char (via SetChar()) a new length is set
3. nsCStrings can be upsampled into nsString without data loss
4. Char searching is faster than string searching. Use char interfaces
if your needs will allow it.
5. It's easy to use the stack for nsAutostring buffer storage (fast too!).
See the CBufDescriptor class in this file.
6. It's ONLY ok to provide non-null-terminated buffers to Append() and Insert()
provided you specify a 0<n value for the optional count argument.
7. Downsampling from nsString to nsCString is lossy -- avoid it if possible!
8. Calls to ToNewCString() and ToNewUnicode() should be matched with calls to Recycle().
***********************************************************************/
/**********************************************************************************
AND NOW FOR SOME GENERAL DOCUMENTATION ON STRING USAGE...
The fundamental datatype in the string library is nsStr. It's a structure that
provides the buffer storage and meta-info. It also provides a C-style library
of functions for direct manipulation (for those of you who prefer K&R to Bjarne).
Here's a diagram of the class hierarchy:
nsStr
|___nsString
| |
| ------nsAutoString
|
|___nsCString
|
------nsCAutoString
Why so many string classes? The 4 variants give you the control you need to
determine the best class for your purpose. There are 2 dimensions to this
flexibility: 1) stack vs. heap; and 2) 1-byte chars vs. 2-byte chars.
Note: While nsAutoString and nsCAutoString begin life using stack-based storage,
they may not stay that way. Like all nsString classes, autostrings will
automatically grow to contain the data you provide. When autostrings
grow beyond their intrinsic buffer, they switch to heap based allocations.
(We avoid alloca to avoid considerable platform difficulties; see the
GNU documentation for more details).
I should also briefly mention that all the string classes use a "memory agent"
object to perform memory operations. This class proxies the standard nsAllocator
for actual memory calls, but knows the structure of nsStr making heap operations
more localized.
CHOOSING A STRING CLASS:
In order to choose a string class for you purpose, use this handy table:
heap-based stack-based
-----------------------------------
ascii data | nsCString nsCAutoString |
|----------------------------------
unicode data | nsString nsAutoString |
-----------------------------------
Note: The i18n folks will stenuously object if we get too carried away with the
use of nsCString's that pass interface boundaries. Try to limit your
use of these to external interfaces that demand them, or for your own
private purposes in cases where they'll never be seen by humans.
--- FAQ ---
Q. When should I use nsCString instead of nsString?
A. You should really try to stick with nsString, so that we stay as unicode
compliant as possible. But there are cases where an interface you use requires
a char*. In such cases, it's fair to use nsCString.
Q. I know that my string is going to be a certain size. Can I pre-size my nsString?
A. Yup, here's how:
{
nsString mBuffer;
mBuffer.SetCapacity(aReasonableSize);
}
Q. Should nsAutoString or nsCAutoString ever live on the heap?
A. That would be counterproductive. The point of nsAutoStrings is to preallocate your
buffers, and to auto-destroy the string when it goes out of scope.
Q. I already have a char*. Can I use the nsString functionality on that buffer?
A. Yes you can -- by using an intermediate class called CBufDescriptor.
The CBufDescriptor class is used to tell nsString about an external buffer (heap or stack) to use
instead of it's own internal buffers. Here's an example:
{
char theBuffer[256];
CBufDescritor theBufDecriptor( theBuffer, PR_TRUE, sizeof(theBuffer), 0);
nsCAutoString s3( theBufDescriptor );
s3="HELLO, my name is inigo montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die!.";
}
The assignment statment to s3 will cause the given string to be written to your
stack-based buffer via the normal nsString/nsCString interfaces. Cool, huh?
Note however that just like any other nsStringXXX use, if you write more data
than will fit in the buffer, a visit to the heap manager will be in order.
Q. What is the simplest way to get from a char* to PRUnichar*?
A. The simplest way is by construction (or assignment):
{
char* theBuf = "hello there";
nsAutoString foo(theBuf);
}
If you don't want the char* to be copied into the nsAutoString, the use a
CBufDescriptor instead.
